Deano! What can i say, we’re having the end of Metapod drinkies and its a shame you were unable to join us. But we hear you’re in Scotland so all the best with that and with the business as a whole. Keep in touch-we are organising a metapod reunion for February, we’ll see you there 🙂 x

Helloo Dean, Amazing set up you’ve done here. Great to see your influences and after seeing your work first it all kinda slots into place. Your ink drawings (you know the slightly dark and shuddery stuff ‘what have we done’) in particular, but you put your very own slightly twisted stamp on it though 🙂

Thanks for the comment and yeah I remember you! Got your belated questionnaire last week – thanks! You seemed to get a lot from Metapod and was really great to meet you at CR Networking meeting – not sure I helped you really! 🙂

I was thinking of coming to visit Wolverhampton Art Gallery and thought it would be better if you could show me round…are you around early next week? Or I should ask…are you off any time over the festive period?

Can you put an RSS feed capability on the blog so that I can subscribe and get updates sent to me rather then me having to remember to visit every now and again? i think it is a free option on wordpress…but you can always ask our pete to be sure.

Hello Dean!
I finally thought I’d give you my link to my blog after our chat at the Christmas fair at Wolverhampton! it wasn’t very developed before but there’s a bit more to it now! but it’s all still developing!
It’s nice to see your paintings, I especially like the Siren Project and the December 17th one, I like the colours and the darkness!
Hope you’re well,
Carly

Hi Dean, Great to meet you today. I’ve just been looking at some of your art – I especially like the drawings. Love back and white things, strange how they often seem to reveal more than all the colour in the world. You really capture things in your work too. Will be going back to look at some more soon and will tweet some links to your site. All my best to you, Ruth 🙂

Hello Dean, I’ve been reading your blog for a while now.I felt a smile coming on when I read “writing to myself or a close friend” I thought that you might like a look at another writer/painter on Ilaria Del Turco. I find her to be interesting. Best wishes, Ian Warburton.

I have only just met them really. Just agreed to do something with them in September. A lot of my work is a little contemporary for the market their but I am working on some stuff that I think will cross over.
